Obviously being one of the few times John’s at a
loss for words…
Thanks to No Fenders Offical Photographer and
roving reporter Carpets’, whose “Acting’ Indiana Bureau Chief tag should have
come off years ago…
Having passed the John force Racing building in
Brownsburg, Indiana recently, He wondered why its flag was at half mast?
Having since found out it was in honour of
Adria Force Height having passed away on April 28th.
Think everyone knows of the Force daughters,
albeit just Ashley, Courtney and Brittany. All having raced professionally, all
three having won NHRA “Wally’s”, and Brittany a two-times Top Fuel champion.
Thus one tends to forget about Adria, John and Laurie’s
oldest daughter who died at age 56. And yes, She was previously married to
triple NHRA Top Fuel Funnycar champion Robert Height.
Was also unaware that Robert had stepped-down
and retired from being President of JFR last March. While Adria had risen to
CFO of John Force Racing, (JFR) having been one of its first employees.
The former couple had one daughter, Autumn, who
raced NHRA Junior dragsters.
